XV - The Breath of Souls [1st Marriage]

by Austin Halling-Rowe

In the interests of our devotions,
And to empower that intent
To which this marriage claims force,
I do bless, abide, and consent
This day, this hour, this minute on--
And consign both body and mind,
Which by your faith you have won,
To you--may you keep them well!
And reserve no love apart
Except that which is due
The Breath of Souls,
And the Light that shines upon this union,
Upon our hearts,
And upon all things.

Author's Note: After the first wedding they all kinda become routine!
